A Kiss To Baccara

Chapter 20

CHAPTER 20.

THE DAY OF OUR Business Week came. Everyone was so excited and happy to attend. There were a lot of booths, as usual, and everyone's enjoying but I couldn't.

Ako ang may hawak ng attendance para sa morning program, at kanina pa akong naiinis dahil kada segundo may lalapit sa akin para magpalista. Hindi nga ako sumali sa pagpaplano about sa event na ito, ako naman ang binigyan ng task na ito!

I could easily ditch this event, the hell I care! But I just couldn't, dahil dalawa kami ni Roa ang may hawak sa attendance. Siya ang sa panghapon.

It was a very busy morning. Ni hindi nga kami nakakaalis sa pwesto namin. I wouldn't leave this spot either, mas magandang dito lang ako nakaupo kaysa habulin ako ng mga kaklase para magpapirma.

The evening program's the exciting part for this event for me. There would be live bands tonight until 1AM, and our class president decided to through a drinking party at her house tonight sincd hindi pwedeng sa school mismo uminom.

The sun has already set, nagsisimula na ang program para sa gabi. The student council was busy preparing for the live band that will start half an hour from now. And, while I was sitting at the top of the bleachers, watching them move like busy ants during summer, a realization hit me.

I have never experienced going to school like a normal girl. What I mean is... pumapasok naman ako ng school, but people would always avoid me when they find out I'm Quincy Deanne Azarcon, the daughter of Lazarus Azarcon, and the heiress of the Azarcon Empire. The people who talk to me and tried to get close to me were either wanting to get on my good side so they could lure me into a business deal once I'm old enough, or they just treat me nicely because of some social heirarchy shit.

And, bodyguard's would always tail me, lalo na noong elementary pa ako. I only asked dad to lessen the numbers of bodyguards when I was in highschool.

Pretending to be Kyrazine Ellie Amorata has grew on me. And for the past weeks, I admit, I liked how normal my life is whenever I'm inside this school. And, somehow, it made me think... what if I was born in a normal family? What if I was raised like a normal child?

I quickly shook my head, in hopes of removing those thoughts inside my head. This mission has been stretched out too long, that it's already turning me into some kind of a soft and sentimental person. Hindi na ito pwedeng mas tumagal pa.

"Shot! Shot! Shot! Shot!"

Pagkapasok ko kaagad sa bahay ng class president namin. Malawak ang sala ng bahay niya, at may hagdanan papuntang second floor sa bandang dulo ng silid. Kahit nakailaw ang chandelier, mas lamang ang party lights na galing sa nakasakdak na LED sa pader, na kumikislap-kislap at nag-iiba pa ng kulay.

The program at school hasn't ended yet, pero walang attendance kaya halos lahat ay nandito na sa bahay niya. Mukhang kasisimula lang nilang mag-party dahil maayos pa at sober pa ang lahat, at marami pang laman ang mga alak na nakabukas.

Come to think of it... it has been a while since the last time I went to a club and enjoy. I missed drinking and doing those club stuff. Maybe, this simple and small party, will suffice for now. I'm Kyrazine right now, not Quincy, so I really had to tone down my liquor and my behavior here.

Everyone was screaming and shouting while dancing to some popular hiphop music. Habang naglalakad ako, inabutan pa ako ng isang baso ng hindi ko kilalang brand ng alak. Hinahanap ko si Roa, kaya nagpatuloy ako sa paglalakad hanggang sa nakarating ako sa mahabang sofa na nakadikit sa pader ang likod.

He was sitting there, like a lost child, still wearing his white t-shirt and black pants. His hair was disheveled, like he did it on purpose out of frustration or something. He was holding a glass with white liquid in it, probably some light alcohol, or soft drinks.
